It's a shame Bradley's been on ice for so long. He is 1 of the more promising young fighters out there. He got his belts (for the most part), earning his stripes against quality opponents. Boxing needs him back in the mix at 147.

Bradley's career is further along than Rios's has been, period. That's why he's made a bit more money. If you think Bradley has more star potential than Rios, you're insane. He's a fighter who is a solid B+, has very good all around skills but is exceptional at virtually nothing.
Guys, Rios almost landed the Pacquiao fight. He'd show up, get lit up, but likely make it a more exciting fight than Bradley did. Like him or not, he'd gain fans, and everyone would be talking about how they want to see the guy who gives it his all again. And he'd also make a big payday.
Bradley's made progressively worse choices regarding his career. Now he's borderline inactive. Picking and choosing your fights and trying to be your own boss may work for FMJ, but it doesn't work for a guy who is not in demand and never really will be. I like the fighter, and I'd like to see him back in the mix. Pretending he's the next P4P bad boi is literally ridiculous and he needs to cut dat **** out.Last edited by samouraļ; 01-21-2013, 11:19 PM.

Originally posted by Mister Wolf View PostSo for all the excitement and electricity Rios generated in his last fight he is going to make more money than Bradley in their next fights right?
One guy won and everyone thinks he lost. One guy would lose but he'd gain fans for being "exciting" and showing a lot of heart, despite being a one-dimensional brawler with a reconfigured face.

Originally posted by Rome-By-Ko View PostRios has the potential to lose a lot of big fights while Bradley has the ability and potential to win a lot of big fights against top notch opponents...Thus making him more relevant in the long run then Rios..I like Rios but I could see him losing to a lot of top level guys..Bradley being one of them..There is a reason why Rios is being moved how he's being while Bradley has taken way more risk with his career..
The best thing he can do is go out there, be active, and dominate as much as he can. I don't believe he's going to be an elite level fighter, but who knows. He's still young. He can't afford to be sitting around waiting for the biggest payday.Last edited by samouraļ; 01-21-2013, 11:30 PM.

Regardless, golden boy, and rightfully so, is not going to let Floyd fight (let alone lose) to a top rank fighter, period
